Reviews around signal (4.51 of 5)

  • I read reviews where people said that the DI didn't put out enough signal
  • I use it to send a nice clean signal to the audio interface/mixer using the balanced XLR output, and another signal to a dedicated bass amp using the 1/4" (to be used as a personal monitor).
  • It does boost the signal just enough to use the 1/4" line level inputs on a mixer/audio interface.
  • It does boost the signal just enough to use the 1/4" line level inputs on a mixer/audio interface.
  • whatever effect pedals I want to the monitor line and still send a clean signal to the DAW.

Reviews around box (4.32 of 5)

  • Honestly, this modeler costs about the same as a solid direct injection box that only does direct injection
  • Phenomenal tone options for such a cheap DI box
  • This box was cheap, and I have a low budget
  • I like the DI part as well just one little box to plug in direct on stage for a great Bass sound.
  • Works great as direct box or as amp modeler straight into your regular bass amp

Reviews around price (4.30 of 5)

  • But my brother wanted it and he said me the price was good, i decided to give him away for her birthday.
  • Its really a bargain and isnt a compromise just because price is good.
  • I get a much cleaner signal this way than going 1/4" direct from the passive p-bass into the preamped 1/4" instrument input on the audio interface (true in both amp modeling and bypass mode).
  • All in all a nice "clone" of the Sans Apm at a great price!
  • I bought this item based on the good reviews and of course unbelievable price however from my

Reviews around tube (4.26 of 5)

  • Honestly this was what i wasn't expecting from what i paid, it totally blew my mind immediately after plugin it in and doing some tone settings, it reminded me of a warm tube sound from an SVT head and it responded crisp and smooth , whether you`re playing by pick or
  • Good clean tube tones with classic ampeg svt mid notch.
  • Who wants to spend thousands of dollars and lug around hundreds of pounds of gear, and replace unreliable tubes every year?
  • The BDI21 gives me a nice warm adjustable tube sound for very little cash output.
  • , none I can think of comes close to producing authentic tube tone like the Bdi21

Reviews around amp (4.03 of 5)

  • Works well in front of s solid state amp to warm the tone.
  • I get a much cleaner signal this way than going 1/4" direct from the passive p-bass into the preamped 1/4" instrument input on the audio interface (true in both amp modeling and bypass mode).
  • I was just at an Eric johnson show where the bass player lost his tube amp in the middle of a song, it took the roadies most of the song to throw a new solid state amp up for him
  • Got this for the Church band and its easier to plug in to the pa not having to drag my amp
  • You can pull this box out at a gig and go directly to the board and it sounds like you have an amp instead of just a dry guitar input

Reviews around thing (3.95 of 5)

  • This thing sounds good, has lasted well and is a very good price.
  • I was expecting a mediocre product that would just do the job, but this thing is awesome
  • So this thing can split your signal into a balanced signal to run into the board and the PA and subwoofers if you have them, and an unbalanced signal for your amp/monitor
  • This thing warmed up and beefed up that bass track....and it's now!
  • This thing drains batteries very quickly

Reviews around di (3.75 of 5)

  • I say if your looking for a cheap bass DI and Overdrive pedal get this and buy the power supply so u can get free shipping through amazon
  • Phenomenal tone options for such a cheap DI box
  • Decent SVT, flip top or "fat tube" tone, and a nice quiet DI.
  • This is an incredibly inexpensive active DI with a nice sounding pre-amp, and it's as cheap as anything.
  • Even if you just record bass as a guitarist doing demos, having "the sound" as you're tracking is so much more inspirational than unaffected DI and adding an SVT plugin later

Reviews around sound (3.71 of 5)

  • I like the DI part as well just one little box to plug in direct on stage for a great Bass sound.
  • I can definitely get a better sound with this than without it when recording, but it's not the magic
  • but I can overlook them for its awesome sound and versatility.
  • First it makes your cheap instrument sound like is 5 times (in my case 10) more expensive
  • I gave it 2 stars since it does provide some nice warm sound.

Reviews around product (3.53 of 5)

  • , maybe I just like their products due to my German ancestry...
  • I agree with the other low ranked reviews and would not recommend this product
  • But if you're like me and are thinking that this will somehow make your bass tracks way better, it's not a magic box, but it's a reasonable decent product
  • The product itself is also very sturdy,certainly an important aspect in my opinion since I've been dealing with pedals for a while
  • Nearly every Behringer product I've owned is garbage along with this one.

Reviews around pedal (3.32 of 5)

  • Definitely worth the money, but I don't know if more expensive pedals are better.
  • He thought I'd made a mistake buying a Behringer pedal.
  • Was looking for a cheap bass preamp pedal as I mostly play guitar
  • This pedal is modeled to the SVT tone if you like that tone, overdrive dirt don't sound so good at full
  • works as direct box when pedal is deactivated too just like the Behringer GDI21.

Reviews around bass (3.01 of 5)

  • It makes an awesome bass tone but when the drive is high, it makes a high pitched sound
  • It gives a nice level of control over your tone making it fuller and more dynamic and makes your bass sound like its more expensive, it serves the DI functionality perfectly and is very portable
  • Gives me a nice fat round bass tone with the right kiss of hair
  • Good tone unit that will make a cheap bass sound like a quality one

Reviews around plastic (1.69 of 5)

  • These effects pedals, as well as all Behringer's products, have a terrible reputation for build QC.If you get a good one, great -- if not, you can expect to do some minor repairs on this very fragile plastic case...if not immediately, then eventually.

  • Straight into the board, my P-Bass growls, thunders and roars just like through an SVT!
